Accounting, growth and acquisitions all affect the same business.

Your numbers affect the decisions you make. How you grow the business affects its profit and value. Buying other businesses can become another way to grow what you own.

That’s why Obsessed brings Accounting, Advisory and Acquisitions together in one group.

The same problem kept coming up.

I’ve trained more than 10,000 entrepreneurs and spent years around accountants, advisers and business owners across hundreds of industries.

I kept seeing the same thing.

The accountant dealt with the numbers. Someone else helped with growing the business. Then, further down the line, wealth and investment became another separate area.

But they were all decisions about the same business.

The numbers affect what you can do. How you grow the business affects its profit and value. And what you build gives you options for how you use that value in the future.

I built Obsessed to bring those parts together.

Obsessed has three main parts.

01

Know Your Numbers.

Accounts, tax, bookkeeping and management information from an ACCA-regulated practice.

Understand what your numbers are telling you, so you know where you stand on profit, cash and tax.

02

Grow Your Business.

The Growth Academy helps business owners make the business more profitable, more valuable and less dependent on them.

It combines the curriculum, monthly Academy Days, coaching, accountability and the Obsessed community.

03

Build Your Wealth.

The Acquisitions Academy teaches you how to find, fund and buy businesses.

It covers the process from finding a business and speaking to the seller through valuation, funding, negotiation, due diligence and completion.

You don’t have to use all three. Start with the part your business needs now.

Each part of Obsessed needs specialist expertise, but it all has to work together to help build your business.

01. Qualifications & Regulation

Obsessed Accounting is an ACCA-regulated practice, and the wider team includes Master's-qualified people with experience across accounting and business. The professional side of Obsessed is built on recognised qualifications and regulation.

02. Real Business Experience

Obsessed works with business owners every day, and we’re also building and acquiring businesses through the group. The advice we give comes from dealing with many of the same decisions in our own businesses.

03. The Whole Business

Your numbers, how you grow the business and what you do with the value you create all affect each other. That’s why Accounting, Advisory and Acquisitions are built to work together inside Obsessed.

04. Professional Accountability

Obsessed Accounting is regulated by ACCA and has to meet the professional standards that come with that. We wanted the accounting side of Obsessed to be a regulated professional practice in its own right.

More than a decade helping business owners.
